O'Day will be part of an eight man bullpen, which will presumably be in place through September 1, at which points rosters expand and additional reinforcements can be recalled.

Teagarden had seen limited time since his recall, with his purpose basically being insurance as a third catcher so that Yorvit Torrealba and Mike Napoli can both be in the lineup at the same time.  Teagarden will likely be back in early September.

So Mitch better be ready for some DH duty

I’m guessing that we’ll see plenty of Nap at 1st and Yorvit at C and Mitch at DH between now and Sept 1st.

Maybe a day in right

Nellie could use a night off. And I prefer David Murphy not spare us all to death.

If I had a gun to my head and had to pick one pitcher to pitch a game to save my life.... I'd pick 1999 Rick Helling.

Dear Rangers, Make me forget about 2010.......

That would be great

The Astros could use a guy like him.

Will Borbon be a September callup?

He went down in mid-July with his sprained ankle, and they said it would be 6 weeks.

Any chance he gets called up? Any chance he’s even healthy?

Correct

You won’t see Borbon this year unless he’s in the seat next to you at the ballpark.

Pretty good article from ESPN about the Weaver extension

Link

Weaver did give them a hometown discount and so anyone who thinks that CJ wont or shouldn’t get more than Weaver is going to be sadly mistaken.

by bigsteve on Aug 24, 2011 3:40 PM CDT reply actions  

I think Weaver could have gotten 20 per in FA

So that’s a pretty big discount. Before this, I was thinking CJ would command 5/80-85. I don’t know what to think now

I have much respect (grudging of course) for Weaver after his presser

Always good to hear a highly-paid athlete who can say “that’s enough money”.

With how pissed he seems to get at his teammates

giving them such a discount so that he can stay there surprises me a good bit.

"In fact, most of these free-swinging Padres couldn’t hit Dock’s funky palm ball. I threw it often. But by then, also, the first acid distractions entered: the TV flickered; the cracks in the wall started to move; the hand soap started to breathe — those sorts of things. Plus I was drawn to the outdoor garden between innings. Rain was near, I sensed." - A.J. Daulerio

by Gdawg on Aug 24, 2011 5:06 PM CDT up reply actions  

Well CJ was always likely to get more than Weaver due to the nature of FA

but Weaver sets a pretty good benchmark for CJ, and who’s to say that CJ doesn’t give the Rangers a discount too. I’m not betting on it, but I wouldn’t have bet Weaver would have given the Angels one either.

I'll take your inside knowledge of this.

Reading that story reminded me of

Dancin’ Homer and the Capital City Goofball.

Can’t believe that episode first aired over 20 years ago.
